Leaving dogs in the camper can lead to some bad experiences..
We were up Elk hunting in a TC and left the Wave heater on to keep the dogs and camper warm..Well,they got to playing grab azz and knocked a cushion off the dinette right up against the heater..We were on the hill just above the truck camper and saw smoke coming out the top vent and thought oh chit..Literly ran down the hill and opened the door as the dogs flew out..The plastic on the seats was smoldering and just a small open flame.. We lucked out on that one..
Another time someone started shooting near the camper and our Australian shepherd tried to chew his way out the dinette window with tooth marks on the window trim with blood..I could not believe he had the power to do what he did to the window trim....
We seldom leave our dogs in a camper anymore because of our experiences doing so..
